Mindthinkr June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 (edited) Eboni stating that she still has work to do…well I’m here for a show. Not lessons on history. It nice they all made up, but where is the fun stuff? I never thought this show would devolve into a platform show. I’m more interested in platform shoes. Edited June 9, 2021 by Mindthinkr 5 16 Link to comment
RedDelicious June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 If someone told me I was articulate, I would be SO flattered because I sometimes struggle to find my spoken words. But say it to a black woman and it’s automatically a microagression? Come ON. It’s a fucking compliment for a well expressed point. Not everyone can do that. Has nothing to do with skin color. 1 14 Link to comment
Lassus June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 (edited) I want to focus on a great minor hilarious moment, which is LuAnn's poor child and whomever those other people were at the end of the table. The (I assume queer) boy at the end of the table nodding and shaking his head and reacting, wanting desperately to be engaged, flanked by the daughter and girl across from her (another daughter?) who were stone-faced and wanting desperately to be anywhere else. I really thought that a hilarious found moment. Edited June 9, 2021 by Lassus 1 5 Link to comment

I initially thought that, too, but she gave no indication that she was. I don't know - Heather trying to play the role of "Eboni whisperer" rubbed me the wrong way. Eboni was explaining herself quite well, she didn't need Heather trying to do it for her. 12 Link to comment

I don’t think of people in that manner. I appreciate the ability of a person to express themselves with clear and impactful words no matter what they look like, because it’s something I struggle with myself. I guess now I know simply being appreciative of that can be considered racist if the person isn’t white. I find that to be pretty disconcerting.

Yep, has nothing to do with skin color. Neither does the flavor of pumpkin or the adjective angry. Leah is obnoxious and Eboni has profound anger issues along with being heavily prejudicial and maybe even racist. She's said at least two anti-white comments EVERY episode. Didn't think RHONY could ever be sunk, but here we are. I'll watch again if it's ever returned to the entertaining watch it was for so long. 12 Link to comment

Steph J June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 Sorry, Leah, you can't bring up politics/voting apropos nothing and then get your back up when someone you're talking to has an opinion about what you've just expressed. If you don't want to risk being judged for your stance, you can always keep it to yourself. 22 Link to comment

So, here's the thing - you don't get to decide if it is considered a microaggression. The person who experiences it - like Eboni - does. Just because, for instance, Heather may not think that she's delivering a microaggression doesn't mean that Eboni doesn't have the right to experience it as a microaggression. 5 15 Link to comment

Popular Post LilaFowler June 9, 2021 Popular Post Share June 9, 2021 Last season, it was the drinking that Leah blamed for her obnoxious behavior. This year, it's her grandma dying. I don't actually give a shit what is bothering her right now, she's ruining the show. 1 26 Link to comment
CSunshine76 June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 I don’t want to diminish Leah’s feelings, but it would seem she’s being a tad dramatic for the cameras. I’ve lost people close to me. I sure as fuck was by their side and not hanging out with my friends. And funny, when I cried during those times (and hell, still cry for my Mom 4 years later), actual tears come out of my eyes. 18 Link to comment

Lu did not call Eboni an angry black woman and Leah wasn’t there and she’s an idiot anyway. If everyone has to tippy toe around every comment to Eboni (and Garcelle on BH too). They make everything about race. This shouldn’t be a political platform. This should be entertainment. And it’s not. Thanks Bravo Andy for ruining my favorite franchise. The irony is that at the core of this is idiot Leah, who's toxic behavior Eboni was foolishly trying to defend. If Eboni wants to call out people, she should start with vulgar Leah and her horrible behavior, hypocrisies, childish outbursts. Leah McSweeney is terrible casting. She is unwatchable.

Stats Queen June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 Sonja said “I’m Sagittarius, I always catch a fish”. I share my birthday with her although she is one year older than me. I don’t have a good track record of catching a fist. Although Sonja is only a year older than me, her face is much younger. However, some my joints are much younger and others have been fused together 😜 7 Link to comment
